The Treatment
Peptide Therapy
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, the same building blocks that make up the proteins your body already uses. In therapy, specific peptides are prescribed to support targeted biological functions, such as recovery, body composition, skin quality, or sleep.
Peptide therapy is a fast-evolving area of medicine, and the quality of care varies enormously. The wrong peptide, the wrong dose, or unregulated sourcing can do more harm than good. At 23MD, peptides are prescribed only where they have a clear clinical rationale, sourced exclusively through regulated medical channels, and monitored across the course of the protocol.
About
What it is, how it works.
How it works
After consultation and relevant bloodwork, your doctor selects the appropriate peptide protocol, including which peptide, what dose, and what route. Most peptides are self-administered as a small subcutaneous injection at home, similar to insulin. Over the course of the protocol, the peptide acts on its specific biological target.
